Prime Minister Gaston Browne says a combination of weak polling numbers and recent conduct in Parliament could put Opposition Leader Jamale Pringle at risk of losing his position.

Speaking on his weekly radio programme, Browne pointed to what he described as declining public support for the opposition United Progressive Party, alongside Pringle’s performance in the Lower House, as factors that could trigger internal pressure within the party.

Browne suggested that recent developments have raised questions about Pringle’s leadership, indicating that continued setbacks could lead to moves against him from within his own ranks.

The prime minister’s remarks come amid heightened political tensions ahead of an expected general election, with both major parties intensifying their campaigns.
